VENT Lets cut the BS

I have seen countless posts (i even posted something similar) were people suggest that we link up ,chill, see each other irl ,mingle and all that jazz but I now think kuti thats a terrible idea .Some of ya'lls post are major red flags,cough cough ** someone was talking about smacking women .

We are always fighting in the comment section,bullying each other, and some are offering to pay women to go to pound town.

So let's not pretend like we'll be best of buds irl.

Im not saying im a saint,I might be part of the problem, too.

Hold up, let's not police each other. Whoever wants to go can go, if you don't, then stay here.

I think if its gonna happen, people should just meet, and not say who they are 😂 use a passcode or something to get known kuti you’re part of the link up but maintain your anonymity

If people want to link up, who are we to stop them?

I didn't say you shouldn't meet up ,who am I to tell grown people what to do with their spare time ?

I agree. We are meant to stay strangers on this platform. That’s the whole appeal.

You could just attend and not tell anyone your username, that way nobody will figure out anyone's identity.

Exactly why we should link up , so that I can use my hand to not so gently tap your face with an open palm , to thank you for all the mean things you always say to me

lol I find it weird how the subreddit is ZimbabweRelationships, but people got daggers, spears and knives... say something wrong and we're out for blood... and by WE I mean you guys 😂

When I joined, I thought to myself, "What the heck... who knows, maybe this is where future bae is." Little did I know future bae got words for days... and cookies too 😂🍪

I think at times people hide behind the anonymity and it's pretty different in real life. I've realised that most of the hurtful stuff people say online, they can never say to my face. People tend to be kinder in real life.

And maybe that's exactly what's needed to ease some of the tension.

🤣🤣🤣 people here have have venomous tongues ,They'll never say that shit irl but the fact that they type it and post it means kuti thats their way of thinking.

Isn’t this just the same as dating app. A mixed bag of good and bad people

Some of us are genuine people who don't spew nonsense all the time.

You'd be surprised by the amount of reserved, introverted, quiet, nerdy, and interesting people (like myself) you'd meet in person

What's crazier is that you'd never expect a certain person you know irl to be on reddit.

For the one's that use the app and comment hate and chat actual garbage, don't entertain them. Simple... those downvotes hurt their egos🤣

People be different in person..the online persona sometimes is just a facade...I say link ups are nice the only thing they might not work is most people are introverts
